Fun Fact Friday:

Did you know that the New Caledonian giant gecko can make a barking sound?

When threatened or disturbed, this unique gecko produces a sharp, bark-like noise to warn off predators. Unlike many reptiles that remain silent, this species has developed vocalizations as a defence mechanism. The sound helps them communicate and alert potential threats to stay away.

This fascinating behaviour shows how even reptiles have their own ways of interacting with their environment! Keep an ear outβ€”there’s more to these geckos than meets the eye! 🌿

Fun Fact Friday:

Snakes have an extraordinary sense of smell, and they don’t use their noses like we do! πŸπŸ‘ƒ Instead, they use a special organ called the Jacobsen's organ (or vomeronasal organ) located in the roof of their mouth. When a snake flicks its tongue, it collects scent particles from the air and brings them to this organ for analysis. 🌿

So, next time you see a snake flicking its tongue, rememberβ€”it’s "tasting" the air to smell its surroundings!

Fun Fact Friday:

Did you know snakes shed their skin between 4 and 12 times a year? 🐍

Younger snakes shed more frequently than older ones because they grow rapidly, while adult snakes shed less often as their growth slows. This natural process not only helps them grow but also removes parasites and damaged skin.

Fun Fact Friday: Did you know that snakes can’t blink? 🐍

Their eyes are covered by a specialized transparent scale called a spectacle or brille, which helps keep their eyes moist and protected. This scale is shed periodically, along with the rest of the snake’s skin.
